The Historian’s Wizard Of Oz : Reading L. Frank Baum’s Classic As A Political And Monetary Allegory

Attribution
edited by Ranjit S. DighePublication Details
BookPraeger2002Description
The heart of the book is an annotated version of The Wizard of Oz that highlights the possible political and monetary symbolism in the book by relating characters, settings, and incidents in it to the historical events and figures of the 1890s, the decade in which Baum wrote his story. Despite an incongruence with Baum’s intent, reading the story as a parable continues to provide a remarkable window into the historical events of the 1890s and, thus, constitutes a tremendous teaching tool for historians, economists, and political scientists.
